Andover

Hello Andover friends, enough of the rain already.

Don’t forget the Bottle Drive on Saturday morning starting at 9 a.m. This is a fundraiser for the fifth-grade class at Andover School.

Cheerful thoughts and prayers are going out to several Andover neighbors: Minnie Akers, Joyce Frasier and Bob Hutchins, (who still hasn’t made it home from rehab — hopefully soon.)

Well the Telstar Softball team made it to North Carolina on Saturday. They are having better weather than us. My daughter, Sarah, called me on Tuesday and said that some of the team went parasailing. Fun! They already played one game on Monday, and are scheduled for three more.

Happy birthday wishes this week to Madison Papiano today (Thursday), Keagan Pitcher on Saturday, and Marc Chaisson Jr, on the 26th.

Congratulations to Andover resident Evelyn Bodemer, who was recently presented with The 2010 Relay for Life Caregiver Of The Year Award. She has spent the past twelve years volunteering for The Rumford Area Relay for Life held at Hosmer Field. She also volunteers her time with the Andover Service Circle, Daughters of Isabella and Androscoggin Home Care and Hospice. Nice work Mrs.Bodemer!
